Preferred Commercial is delighted to offer for sale this popular newsagents business, which was established by our clients' in 1985 and which is only now being placed on the market due to our clients' wish to retire. The business generates a turnover in the region of £540,000 per annum with a gross profit of 21%, derived from general CTN lines, a selection of groceries and providing PayPoint and Lottery facilities. The shop is also a 'Collect Plus' parcel drop off and collection point. A new owner could increase turnover by perhaps, offering a delivery service and by applying to sell alcohol. We feel this represents an ideal opportunity to acquire an easily manageable newsagents business with an impressive turnover and still scope for future growth. Early discussions, with Preferred Commercial, must come highly recommended.
